Abstract

The fly trap is used to trap and kill the flies by using variety of methods such as light trap, sticky trap and baited trap. The electric mosquito repellent device is a device that uses to repel the mosquitoes efficiently. Mostly the fly trap at the food premises use an electric fly killer but the design is not suitable because the device is hung caused discomfort to the customer as a dead fly will fall on the table, floor, and food. Due to the problem of the design of fly trap at the food premises this project to develop a prototype of fly – mosquito trapping device which means for multipurpose which are to kill flies and repel the mosquitoes at one individual device with improvement design to overcome the problem at the premises. To achieve this objective, the design of device is collaborated with Autodesk software and the design concept of fly – mosquito trapping device is done by using PUGH method. In order to explore the requirements of the customer the survey had been done through questionnaire and interview. The experiment result when testing the different fluid attractant for flies which are liquid chemical, honey and sugar syrup were tabulated in a table. The liquid chemical result got 20, 25 and 30 flies for 3 trials of testing, while the honey got 5, 4, and 5 for 3 trials of testing. Lastly for sugar syrup got 2, 3, and 2 for 3 trials of testing. The result for mosquito repellent by using different mat which are Shieldtox violet mat, Jumbo Q mat, and Ridsect mat were 9 hours, 12 hours and 8 hours respectively. The result shows that most of people agreed for the develop a prototype of fly – mosquito trapping device because it is easy to use, multipurpose function and very effective. The project development for the prototype of fly-mosquito trapping device was done successfully.
